Effect of wheat infection timing on Fusarium head blight causal agents and secondary metabolites in grain

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FOOD MICROBIOLOGY, 290, 214–225.

author keywords: Anthesis; Fusarium graminearum; Fusarium avenaceum; Fusarium poae; Fusarium acuminatum; Mycotoxins
MeSH headings : Chromatography, Liquid; Edible Grain / microbiology; Fusarium / classification; Fusarium / isolation & purification; Mycotoxins / analysis; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Secondary Metabolism; Tandem Mass Spectrometry; Time Factors; Triticum / metabolism; Triticum / microbiology
TL;DR: Overall, infection timing appeared to play a role particularly in F. graminearum colonization and secondary metabolite accumulation, however, secondary metabolites of weaker Fusarium species may be relatively more abundant when environmental conditions promote spore dispersal later in anthesis.

author keywords: Forest fragments; Herbivory; Trees; Urban heat island effect; Warming; Scale insects
MeSH headings : Acer / growth & development; Acer / physiology; Animals; Cities; Climate Change; Food Chain; Forests; Global Warming; Hemiptera / physiology; Herbivory; Hot Temperature; North Carolina; Population Dynamics; Trees / growth & development; Trees / physiology; Urbanization
TL;DR: First, trees growing in urban forest fragments are buffered from a chronic urban tree pest due to lower temperatures, and second, temperature-driven differences in M. tenebricosa density which the authors saw in Raleigh could predict future density of the pest in higher latitude cities as the climate warms.

Exposure risks and ineffectiveness of total release foggers (TRFs) used for cockroach control in residential settings

BMC Public Health, 19(1).

By: Z. DeVries n, R. Santangelo n, J. Crissman n, R. Mick n & C. Schal n

author keywords: Bug bomb; German cockroach; Pesticide residues; Pesticide exposure; Pyrethroids; Total release aerosols
MeSH headings : Animals; Blattellidae / drug effects; Environmental Exposure / adverse effects; Fumigation; Housing; Humans; Insect Control / methods; Insecticide Resistance; Insecticides / adverse effects; Pesticide Residues / analysis; Risk Assessment
TL;DR: The high risks of pesticide exposure associated with TRFs combined with their ineffectiveness in controlling German cockroach infestations call into question their utility in the marketplace, especially because similarly priced and much safer bait products are highly effective in the indoor environment.

A new insight into lead (II) tolerance of environmental fungi based on a study of Aspergillus niger and Penicillium oxalicum

Physiological Adaptive Strategies of Oil Seed Crop Ricinus communis Early Seedlings (Cotyledon vs. True Leaf) Under Salt and Alkali Stresses: From the Growth, Photosynthesis and Chlorophyll Fluorescence

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE, 9.

By: Y. Wang*, W. Jie*, X. Peng*, X. Hua*, X. Yan*, Z. Zhou*, J. Lin n

author keywords: Ricinus communis; cotyledon; true leaf; salt-alkali stress; chlorophyll fluorescence
TL;DR: It is suggested that alkali stress could cause much more damage to the castor bean seedlings, and different physiological responses and adaptive strategies are found in cotyledons and true leaves under salt-alkali stress. (via Semantic Scholar)

Grazing practices affect the soil microbial community composition in a Tibetan alpine meadow

LAND DEGRADATION & DEVELOPMENT, 30(1), 49–59.

author keywords: alpine meadow; bacteria; fungi; grazing practices; Tibetan Plateau
TL;DR: Examination of impacts of different grazing practices on the biomass, diversity, and composition of the soil microbial community in a Tibetan alpine meadow showed that AG was less disruptive to soil microbes, suggesting that AG may provide a viable option for sustainable utilization and conservation of these fragile alpine systems.

Invasive plants differentially affect soil biota through litter and rhizosphere pathways: a meta-analysis

[Review of ]. ECOLOGY LETTERS, 22(1), 200–210.

author keywords: Biological invasions; trophic groups; nutrient cycling; effect size; above-belowground interactions; plant-soil feedback
MeSH headings : Biota; Ecosystem; Nitrogen; Plants; Rhizosphere; Soil; Soil Microbiology
TL;DR: It is hypothesised that litter- and root-based loops are probably linked to generate positive feedback of invaders on soil systems through stimulating nutrient cycling, consequently facilitating plant invasion. (via Semantic Scholar)

Effect of iron limitation on the isotopic composition of cellular and released fixed nitrogen in Azotobacter vinelandii

GEOCHIMICA ET COSMOCHIMICA ACTA, 244, 12–23.

By: D. McRose*, A. Lee*, S. Kopf*, O. Baars n, A. Kraepiel*, D. Sigman*, F. Morel*, X. Zhang*

author keywords: Nitrogen isotopes; Nitrogen fixation; Alternative nitrogenase; Iron; Kinetic isotope effect; Siderophore; Azotobacter vinelandii
TL;DR: Siderophore nitrogen was found to have a slightly higher δ15N than the rest of the DON pool but was still produced in large enough concentrations to account for increases in biomass δ 15N, which is consistent with what is known from compound specific isotope studies of the amino acids used in siderophile biosynthesis.
